From GreenlGad's icy mountains,
From India's cora! strand,
where Aries sunny fountains

All Of which go to prove that the exist

were discovered they left every thing else
completely in the shade. But L restless

Mining Tim hers.

The effect Of enormous pressure and in
tense heat upon soft pine wood is curious
ly shown by some samples sen. to this
city by w. II. Patton, Superintendent oi
the Consolidated California and Virginia.
The pieces Of wood referred to were taken
from the old Consolidated Virginia south
slopes On the 800 level. These pieces
were originally twelve inches square, and
have been compressed to thickness oil
out little more than four inches. There
are three specimens, and they all take q
high polish and are as hard and solid as
lignum vite. They had been under
pressure and exposed TO heat in the mine
for twelve years.

The principal points relied upon in the
suit now pending in Prescott to declare
void the act OF the l4th Legislature, in
regard to licensing liquor dealers, 10, az
we are informed, that the act is special
and therefore inadmissab!e, and Tor the
further reason that because Of there be-
ing no journals kept by either branch Of
the Legislative assembly, the laws as
sumed to have been enacted by it have
no legal signiiicance.-SlrerB Belt.

1t IL the depressed and constantly fuct-
uating price Of silver which prevents
activity in mining matters in this camp.
IL there was only some way TO send silver
to an hundred, and then place such a
barrier behind it that the gold bugs could
not drag it back, We would see yeritable
boom in the silver camps oil the country.
Unfortunately, however, the friends OF
silver not only have to fight its natural
enemies, but to fight them reinforced for
the past two years by the national ad-
ministra.ion. There will be no real se-
curity for silver until the Republican
party drives Cleveland and his coterie Of
Wall street money changers out Of the

Mining in Arizona has never been in
q more healthy condition than at present.
Throughout the entire territory the bust
ness has been reduced TO legitimate
basis. The stock deal craze has passed
away. The wild cat mining; era is no
more. Mining properties are now work
ed on merit. Mining sales are made on
the basis of the actual producing capac"
ity Of the mines purchased. And this is
well for Arizona, for xe have the mineral

against silver coinage during the past ten
years by the gold bugs of New York and

people At large that silver III the true

for silver and silver certificates has never
been greater than at this time, and indi-

FUNERAL OF THE REDS.
An OstentatiOus Demonstration No
to be Allowed.

CHICAGO, November 12-It looks very
much this morning as if the city authori'
ties would refuse TO allow the friends OF
the executed anarchists to carry out their
programme respecting their funerals, which
are set for to morrow. 1t has been learned
from most reliable sources that Mayor
Roche, Chief of Police EbersOld, Inspector
Bonfield and Commissioner of Public
Works Swift had had long conference re-
spectipg what they would or would not
allow.
The Chief and Mayor are both against
letting the crowds line the streets through
which the corteges propose passing, and it
may be decided that the burial of the Reds
will have to be made separate. An Incl
dent occurred this morning, which shows
the temper of the law-abiding people OF
the city.
Spies was member of the Aurora Turn
Verein. Some socialistic members OF the
organization placed an American flag at
half mast on Aurora Turn hall. 1t had
not been there very long before the owners
of the building ordered the flag taken
down.
1t is strongly limited that the authori-
ties of Waldheim cemetery, the one in
which it was proposed to bury the reds and
over their graves erect monument, were
seriously considering whether it was not
their duty to refuse resting place for the
anarchists remains within their enclosure.
At least they will not allow the monu-
ment.
Both the owners of Aurora and Turn
halls, it may be interesting to know, are
German. 1t is also learned this morning
that the Turn hall owners would not
likely refuse to allow the body Of Spies to
lie in state, as was proposed.

SCHWAB AND FIELDEN
Manacled and Sent to Prison to Enter
Upon Their Life Sentence.

CHICAGO, November 12.-The Jail was
gloomy place this morning. Bailitfs
prisoners. reporters and visitors had not
vet outworn the greusome scenes of yes
lerday. A detail of prisoners scrubbed the
Jail from top to bottom early this morning.
Mrs. Schwab, together with her two chill
dren and Mrs. Schnaubelt, came about y
o'clock, and Fielden and Schwab were re-
leased from their cells. Schwab brought
down a stool and conversed with his wife
and mother for nearly two hours, separated
by iron bars and wire netting.
Mrs. Schwab was clad in mourning, IN
memory perhaps of the previous day 8
event. Before parting, Schwab fondly
kissed his children many times and hug
eed them, and then retired to his cell. Mrs.
Fielden came in with baby in her arms
and accompanied by her little girl and
neighbor. Mrs. Fielden cried greal deal
while talking with her husband. About
las the men parted with their wives and
were then taken into the jail office, where
J. A. Foster, one of their counsel at the
trial. talked to them and bade them good
bye. :,
A few minutes after II Fielden and
Schwab were haudcuffed together and
pair of old rusty leg irons put on them,
locking them together, after which they
were searched. Both prisoners requested
that their clothing and papers be sent to
their wives, which they were told would
be done. The men then made their way
down the steps into the Jail
court, their walking being very much i'm
peded by the leg irons, where they took
hack, in which the deputies were, and
were driven to the station and started ON
their way to the peniteutiary.

DisnOsaI of the Bodies.

CHICAGO, November 11.-Letters were
written this morning by order of the sher-
if to the relatives of the doomed men
notifying them that they could take pos
session of the bodies after hanging and
make arrangements for funerals. The let
ters were delivered by Deputy johnson,
who was visibly affected by the sad duty.
Deputy Johnson says the grief displayed
by Spies family is something terrible to
contemplate, but the relatives of the other
men were not so visibly affected. Spies
was removed in his coffin at lao o'clock.
The remains were received by COM
mittee of the Central Labor Union. Before
thescommittee left the Jail they went into
the visitors cage and shouted Goodbye" to
Schwab and Fielden, who will be removed
to the Joliet penitentiary tomorrow. The
members of the committee kissed their
hands and raised them to their imprisoned
comrades and sadly left.
CHICAGO, November 1.-The bodies of
Spies, Fischer and Parsons were taken away
from the Jail at las o'clock. For Spies a
hearse had been provided. There was some
trouble in getting away from the crowd
that tailed on to the last wagon, but rapid
driving freed the procession from this
trouble. Followed by string of cabs and
preceded by carriage containing the COM
mittee, the hearse and wagons moved
speedily along. There was no excitement,
only few persons having gathered. The
corpses were taken to an undertaker's shop,
where they will be dressed and allowed to
rest until they are taken home to their
relatives this evening.

afford instantaneous rel f.
But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh

Another Bomb Sensation.

CHICAGO, November 11.-At 2:3O this
afternoon two anarchists, giving their
names as Charles Lobenstein and Gustave
Harris, were arrested on the front plat
form of the Randolph street car with a
companion. They were talking in very
loud and threatening manner of what
they were going to do tonight ito get even
for the death of their friends and the
friends of the laboring men,"
The passengers on the car began to be
frightened and many of them got off be-
fore the car crossed the bridge. At the
corner of Canal street an officer was sig
nailed by the conductor, and Jump
ing on the car undertook to
arrest the men. Lobenstein caught
the officer by the throat and made an
effort to get the officers revolver. An ex-
citing struggle followed, in which many
citizens joined. Two men were at length
overpowered and taken to the Desplaines
street station. Their companions escaped.
About 2 o'clock two bombs. reported to be
heavily charged with dynamite, were found
in an omnibus which runs from the union
depot to Lincoln Park. The bombs were
of gaspipe, each ten inches long. They
were taken to the Desplaines street station.
